JACC Support

JACC (Java Authorization Contract for Containers) is part
of the Java EE specification and defined by JSR
115. JACC defines an interface for pluggable authorization
providers. This provides third parties with a mechanism to develop
and plug in modules that are responsible for answering authorization
decisions during Java EE application execution. The interfaces and
rules used for developing JACC providers are defined in the JACC 1.0
specification.

The Application Server provides a simple file-based JACC-compliant
authorization engine as a default JACC provider. To configure an alternate
provider using the Admin Console, open the Security component under
the relevant configuration, and select the JACC Providers component.
